It was so bad to see Pep Guardiola with such kind of weird changes when the team isn't certain of the victory. I was thinking that he'll allow KDB to complete the match, but he withdrew him for Jack Grealish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, KDB had a knock or some kind of injury so he was forced to take him off so you can excuse that. The part I never got was putting on Fernandinho whose legs are gone against a very pacy Real Madrid attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That substitution annoyed me, because I wanted Manchester city to progress in the expense of RMA. It's a shame that Guardiola's substitution tactics ruined it.

He does tend to overthink it a lot in cup games and use all kinds of bizarre tactics that may or may not work in the particular match. It can't be a Pep Guardiola moment without him overthinking stuff. It's just how he is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one against RMA last season in the UCL was total abysmal, he couldn't have thrown Grealish into the spotlight of such high intensive game when the England's international's confidence is low.

Clasher Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Currently I am a sadio mane Stan and he is certainly my favorite African player at the moment and I see him becoming my all time best player maybe after Messi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saido Mane is an excellent player but I'd maybe say KDB will be my fav when he retires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDB is Aging gradually, you wouldn't enjoy much from him after your favourite retires. KDB is 29 at the moment, by the time your favourite retires, he might even get to 34.

He scores amazing goals, he is right there at his prime age, KDB will play for some years more. I just wish he can go extra miles this season and landing the UCL title and hopefully win the balloon d'or. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
